Over a year after her exit from the Chery Tiggo EV Crossovers, Eya Laure finally makes her next move in the PVL as she joins the Choco Mucho Flying Titans.
Choco Mucho has officially won the Eya Laure sweepstakes.
The Flying Titans marked 2026 by signing of the high-flying outside hitter, giving the franchise a massive boost as they seek their first PVL title.
Laure’s arrival provides Choco Mucho with another layer of firepower, leadership, and depth, joining forces with Maddie Madayag, Kat Tolentino, Deanna Wong, and Des Cheng under head coach Dante Alinsunurin.
The move comes after Laure’s surprise exit from Chery Tiggo in October 2024. Following her early release, she sat out multiple PVL conferences to a non-compete clause.

But with the restriction now lifted, several teams reportedly pursued her services before Choco Mucho ultimately secured the prized spiker.
During her stint with the Crossovers, the former UST standout helped lead the team to back-to-back semifinal finishes in the 2023 and 2024 All-Filipino Conferences, establishing herself as one of the PVL’s top scorers.
Now with the Flying Titans, Laure is expected to play a key role in bolstering the team’ title ambitions after disappointing runs in the past conferences.
Eya is also expected to rejoin forces with Sisi Rondina in 2026 after the latter beach volleyball stint, which included a historic SEA Games 2025 gold medal.
Also part of Choco Mucho's 2026 signings are Caitlin Viray, Alina Bicar, and Jaila Atienza.
